Hey R*, what's with the killing of streams? I've never understood this big brother bullshit. If the game is out in the wild, don't take it out on consumers that want to share their experience with others.

Love,

Man this game looks fucking awesome. It wasn't even on my radar until I saw this thread :lol

 

[Compton's Most Wanted]

Stream got zapped, but i've seen all I needed to. Looks good. Doesn't look genre re-defining, but a GOTY candidate for sure.

 

[Cant0na]

I don't get it. Why spoil the game for yourselves?

i wanna watch more of the game

 

[Tubobutts]

:lol
I like how he knew it was going to go down.

 

[Chesskid1]

guy is done streaming for the night, so no more streams unless someone else has a copy, but wow, this is going to be epic.

trying to decide if i want autoaim or not. no autoaim will be a huge bitch in bigger shootout sequences i think.

Because people will watch the story then come on to forums or whatever and start going "WTF JOHN KILLS BILLY AFTER YOU FIND OUT HE'S YOUR FATHER" and ruin the whole game.

I always wonder how Giantbomb are allowed to do the endurance runs.

I'm equally interested in Alan Wake (which has been out for over a week some places) and the forums I've visited have been spolier free. It's more about Rockstar controlling shit.

how about the more secretive something is, the more you want it?

As much as I love GB, they are always the absolute last to the punch. They just put out a ql of the Lost Planet 2 demo today, and not only is the retail game already out, but they have already reviewed it (and gave it 2/5 stars) lol.

 

[Dead Prince]

should just create a stream. private it. and say it's RDR but it's not :lol and see what R* do.

 

[criesofthepast]

I missed the streams damnit

 

[Cant0na]

hey, hey Rockstart people, i know youre watching

Fuck you, *flicks wrists from neck to chin

 

[Simo]

Just got home from work...what the hell I missed a live stream?! Dang it! A blessing perhaps..:lol

Oh man and we get a fold out map? Coolness. I see the codes for the outfit and challenges are inside the case, so does that mean we get an actual CD for the soundtrack bundled in?

Launch trailer was awesome and loved the music. Watched it a couple of times already and love picking out some of the details like the "They sell cheap souls" scratched on the railroad bridge Marston passes under early on.

...is it Monday night yet?!

yeah, except for the majority of QL's on games well before their release...what site are you watching dude?

I hope my post above didn't come off douchey. It's just frustrating with R* games especially that we see all this carefully edited footage the entire PR lifespan and when we FINALLY get a chance to see raw footage, it gets shut down immediately.

Are those all the trails I see? Pretty cool.

Nice!

I'm surprised nobody threw together some wallpapers that GAF usually populates in OT. Any takers? I grabbed these backgrounds that might serve some use from the screensaver on Rockstar's site.

What happens if you leave the trail ? Your horse just goes slower ?

At least one can't claim that they aren't consistent in applying their marketing strategy.

Wow. There's not a single frame I can see of that interior loading. Success!

 

[deadbeef]

Probably not much. I would think that would depend on the rockiness of the terrain more than anything, much like Oblivion. I guess you won't run into as many covered wagons or whatever, but you might increase the chance you'll run into a bandit. Just guessing though.

 

[UrbanRats]

A bear eat your balls.

Spoiler

..a bear will eat your balls anyway.

I don't see why not. The game is not being sold to the public and the official media sites are under embargo. If you posted this 5 minutes after release, it would be a strong argument, but for now they're perfectly within their rights to control what gets out.

 

[DietRob]

Saw it in the stream recording.

Maybe it was too early and the player didn't have multiple hats or outfits?

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

No, we've known for a while that you can only change entire outfits.

So.. I read a few pages back that the PS3 version was on sale as well. Did we get any new info on it, or someone that bought it and could say how it performs?

360 version was mistakenly printed on blu-ray so it was recalled until further notice.

 

[zero margin]

Pretty soon there will be too many streams for them to shutdown, if I can make it till Sunday I will be ok.

Thanks. Glad someone recorded it seeing as Rockstar pawned pwned owned the stream.
